The doctrine of stare decisis started inIndia from the
British rule. All cases are now recorded and new cases are decided based on
existing case laws.Today, the judgment of SC is binding on all courts across
India and the judgment of HC is binding on all courts in that state.
2. Legislation
In modern society, this is the only way to bring in new laws. The parliament, in accordance with the needs society, constitutes new laws. For example, a new way of performing Hindu marriages in Tamil Nadu that got rid of rituals and priests was rejected by the SC on the basis that new customs cannot be invented. However, TN later passed an act that recognized these marriages.
Also, most of the Hindu laws have now been codified as mentioned in the beginning.
3. Customs and Practices
The meaning of culture is similar to the meaning of custom. A customis more about practices, while culture is more about ideas or a group ofcustoms. A custom overall is just similar to culture and culture means the way of life of a people.
